• Weight gradience and stress in Portuguese 

  Garcia, Guilherme Duarte (2017)

  This paper examines the role of weight in stress assignment in the Portuguese lexicon, and proposes a probabilistic approach to stress. I show that weight effects are gradient and monotonically weaken as we move away from ...
• When lexical statistics and the grammar conflict: learning and repairing weight effects on stress. 

  Garcia, Guilherme Duarte (2019)

  In weight-sensitive languages, stress is influenced by syllable weight. As a result, heavy syllables should attract, not repel, stress. The Portuguese lexicon, however, presents a case where weight seems to negatively impact ...
• Language transfer and positional bias in English stress 

  Garcia, Guilherme Duarte (2020)

  This paper shows that L1 transfer may not be effectively maintained in the interlanguage due to confounding factors in the L2. When two factors,  and  , are correlated in the L2, second language learners may only ...

• Analyzing Affinities: Research on Personal and Instinctive Movement 

  Lucas, Carly (2020-03)

  This project covers two semesters of creative research on movement affinities, which describe the way that an individual personally and instinctively moves in regard to dance improvisation. The research emphasizes that the ...
• Clinical Gait Analysis in Children and Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder 

  Wu, Xinye; Wang, Henry; Dickin, Clark; Bassette, Laura (2020)

  Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often exhibit motor deficits. It was unclear how children and adolescences with ASD develop their gait patterns due to the possible motor deficits. In order to understand the ...
• Music Exposure Levels on Campus 

  Harvey, Jessica (2020)

  Music induced hearing loss is caused by exposure to excessive intensity levels of music. Marching band and pep band musicians are exposed to high intensity music levels as well as long durations due to multiple practices ...
• On The Nature of Healing: A Fractal Setting for Pediatric Trauma Therapy 

  Mattson, Deborah (2020)

  This landscape architecture project addresses the need for a nature-based therapeutic environment for children in one-on-one and group trauma therapy. The proposed design will be a therapeutic setting for experiential ...
• Forced Migration: Tales of Downward Mobility 

  Orozco, Luis Eduardo (2020-04)

  Forced migration is referred to as the forcible displacement of people to new regions. When highly educated professionals are forcibly displaced, they need to cope with the challenge of integrating into the host country’s ...
• Suitability Evaluation of the Diet Quality Screening Tool 

  Bayer, Riley; Kotecki, Jerome (2020)

  The purpose of this study was to evaluate the suitability of the Diet Quality Screening Tool. We carried out a Suitability Assessment of Materials (SAM) with 30 health care professionals. SAM evaluates materials in six ...
• Genetic Variation of the Metabolic Disorder Homocystinuria 

  Norton, Alexandra (2020-04-21)

  Homocystinuria is an autosomal recessive metabolic disease that leads to elevated levels of homocysteine due to functional defects in the enzyme cystathionine-beta-synthase (CBS). Globally, incidence is low, but appears ...
• Understanding the Effectiveness of Conversation Pals Program 

  Asher, Sunaina (2019-11)

  This study evaluated the Conversation Pals program initiated by the Rinker Center for International Programs which connected the level 3 Chinese students in the Intensive English Institute (IEI) and the American students ...
• Surveying Public Research 2 University Libraries’ Programs Supporting Digital Scholarship: A Report 

  Szajewski, Michael; Collins, Perry; Gibson, Angela; Grimes, Stephanie; Shaw, Matthew; Faust, Bradley (2020)

  Librarians at Ball State University designed and distributed a survey to libraries personnel at all public R2 research universities to assess the nature of university libraries’ engagement with digital scholarship, digital ...
• Accelerated particles from shocks formed in merging clusters of galaxies 

  Berrington, Robert C.; Dermer, Charles D.; Sturner, S.J. (2001)

  Subcluster interactions within clusters of galaxies produce shocks that accelerate nonthermal particles. We treat Fermi acceleration of nonthermal electrons and protons by injecting power-law distributions of particles ...
• Computer Simulations of Nonthermal Particles in Clusters of Galaxies: Application to the Coma Cluster 

  Berrington, Robert C.; Dermer, Charles D. (2004)

  We have developed a numerical model for the temporal evolution of particle and photon spectra resulting from nonthermal processes at the shock fronts formed in merging clusters of galaxies. Fermi acceleration is approximated ...
• Gamma Ray Emission from Merger Shocks in the Coma Cluster of Galaxies 

  Berrington, Robert C.; Dermer, Charles D. (2004)

  A numerical simulation model of the injection and cooling of nonthermal particles energized by shocks formed in merging clusters of galaxies is used to fit radio and X-ray data observed from the Coma cluster of galaxies. ...
• Global Kinematics of the Globular Cluster M15* 

  Drukier, G.A.; Slavin, S.D.; Cohn, H.N.; Lugger, P.M.; Berrington, Robert C.; Murphy, B.W.; Seitzer, P.O. (1998-02)

  We present velocities for 230 stars in the outer parts of the globular cluster M15 measured with the Hydra multifiber spectrograph on the 3.5 m WIYN telescope. A new Bayesian technique is used for analyzing the data. The ...
• Evidence for Stellar Streaming in the Cores of Elliptical Galaxies: A Kinematic Signature of Mergers? 

  Pierce, Michael J.; Berrington, Robert C. (2000-02-22)

  We present evidence for non-Gaussian velocity fields within the cores of luminous elliptical galaxies. This evidence is based on high signal-to-noise ratio, medium-resolution spectroscopy of the cores of early-type members ...
• The Dynamics of the Merging Galaxy Cluster System A2256: Evidence for a New Subcluster 

  Berrington, Robert C.; Lugger, Phyllis M.; Cohn, Haldan N. (2002-05)

  We present 236 new radial velocities of galaxies in the cluster A2256 measured with the WIYN Hydra Multi-Object Spectrograph. Combined with the previous work of Fabricant, Kent, & Kurtz, we have velocities for a total of ...
• Nonthermal Particles and Radiation Produced by Cluster Merger Shocks 

  Berrington, Robert C.; Dermer, Charles D. (2003-09-10)

  We have developed a numerical model for the temporal evolution of particle and photon spectra resulting from nonthermal processes at the shock fronts formed in merging clusters of galaxies. Fermi acceleration is approximated ...
